How can we extend current technology and apply it in new
and different fields in response to the requirements of our customers and society?
We undertake research and development work from this perspective by actively advancing
new product ideas and working to commercialize them. In the years ahead, we will
continue to use our creative energy as we break into new fields and progress into
a new era. We constantly strive to develop products that provide real value.

Details of Exclusive Technology Development

We aim to develop new products based on the results of our own research.

Component technologies developed through our
R&D work form the basis for the planning, development, and design of new products.
U-TEC combines impressive technical expertise and marketing prowess to commercialize
new product ideas for particular sales channels. We will continue to open up new
markets by offering products optimized for the demands of the times.

Fields of ongoing R&D and product commercialization

R&D work to boost production efficiency
Electrostatic technology

We are currently developing anti-static devices
to effectively eliminate static electricity, a serious issue for production facilities
in fields including electronics, pharmaceuticals, and food products, as well as
effective tools for measuring the charge of electrically charged particles. With
electrostatic technology as a core technology, we are pursuing R&D work also
on applications for ionizing elements, and systems for improving their functional
performance.

The latest technologies
to support development and manufacturing operations
Sensor technology

We develop new sensor technology by building
on our expertise in the manufacture of electronic equipment and components. For
example, we have developed both fixed and handheld code readers that can instantly
read special, minute 2-D codes. These are now key tools in ensuring product traceability.

Development of long-lasting lamps
Illumination technology

We are working to develop new types of long-lasting
lamps that will be more environmentally friendly. They require replacement less
frequently, reducing running costs. Their structure can accommodate a variety
of shapes, allowing more freedom in the design of lighting fixtures.
